JetBlue Airways pilots have responded to the carrier’s weaker-than-expected fourth-quarter 2025 financial results, calling for progress toward a long-delayed collective bargaining agreement as the airline looks ahead to a potential recovery in 2026.  JetBlue reported a fourth-quarter net loss of $177 million, or 48 cents per share, widening from a $44 million loss a year earlier, as capacity declined and operating revenue slipped 1.5% to $2.24 billion. The airline cited macroeconomic uncertainty and uneven demand as factors that delayed a return to profitability in 2025, though executives said booking trends have begun to stabilize heading into the new year.  In response to the results,…

“For most of my life, aviation represented something rare: freedom earned through discipline, community built through shared responsibility, and opportunity created by people willing to work, learn, and accept risk in pursuit of something extraordinary. That aviation is disappearing. Not because people stopped loving flight. Not because innovation ran out. And not because safety suddenly demanded it. It’s disappearing because aviation is being regulated, priced, constrained, and managed into submission — and too many of the institutions charged with protecting it have chosen comfort over confrontation.” Source: Jim Campbell’s most recent ‘Barnstorming’ editorial., taking some some sharp exception too the…

Dead Reckoning Dead reckoning, as applied to flying, is the navigation of an airplane solely by means of computations based on airspeed, course, heading, wind direction, and speed, groundspeed, and elapsed time.

Now, he’s using his fortune to attempt success in a far less forgiving industry: personal aviation. The Jungle Scout founder has created a clean-sheet, four-seat aircraft dubbed the Skytron. The design that followed is fully digital fly-by-wire with flight envelope protection. The aircraft is being engineered to actively prevent stalls, overspeeds, excessive bank angles, and other inputs that typically precede loss-of-control accidents. The goal isn’t to eliminate pilots, but to cap how wrong things can go.…

While you’ll find a fair number of points hotels in Reykjavik and the surrounding area, there aren’t many points properties in other parts of Iceland.

By Bjorn Fehrm January 39, 2026, ©. Leeham News: We have done a series about ideas on how the long development times for large airliners can be shortened, while at the same time describing all the regulatory work that must be done, regardless of work practices. It’s now time to sum up what we have looked at in terms of speeding up the development of a Part 25 Air Transport airliner in the 200-seat segment. But before we do that, we will look at what an operator of the aircraft we have delivered will have to do to qualify it…
